“…Coping style is de ned as the thoughts or behaviors individual adopts to handle the adversity and stress [24], which is considered to be consistent over time [25]. An emerging body of studies provided evidence regarding the interaction effect of self-e cacy and coping style [26], which indicated that the effect of self-e cacy might be in uenced by coping style.…”

Background. Health care workers (HCWs) fighting Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) are not immune to fatigue. Self-efficacy has been suggested as a protective factor for fatigue. Nonetheless, less is known regarding the underlying mechanisms behind the association. This research aimed to explore the prevalence of fatigue among HCWs during the pandemic, investigate the mediating effect of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms and moderating effect of negative coping in the association between self-efficacy and fatigue.Methods. The cross-sectional study employed a sample of 527 HCWs from Anhui Province, China. Self-efficacy, PTSD symptoms, negative coping and fatigue were measured by General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES), PTSD Checklist-Civilian Version (PCL-C), Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (CSCQ) and 14-item Fatigue Scale (FS-14) respectively.Results. The prevalence of fatigue among HCWs was 56.7%. The effect of self-efficacy on fatigue was partially mediated by PTSD symptoms. Additionally, negative coping moderated both the direct effect of self-efficacy on fatigue and the mediating effect of PTSD symptoms. As revealed by Johnson-Neyman technique, when the standard score of negative coping enhanced to 1.49 and over, the direct association between self-efficacy and fatigue was not significant. Likewise, the effect of self-efficacy on PTSD symptoms had no statistical significance when the standard score of negative coping was − 1.40 and lower.Conclusions. More than half HCWs suffer from fatigue during the COVID-19. For HCWs during the COVID-19 epidemic, especially those with higher levels of negative coping, it might be crucial to design program combining the enhancement of self-efficacy and interventions for PTSD to reduce fatigue.

“…Return to work (RTW) following an oncological disease represents a major challenge for patients. The scale of physical and emotional coping and impaired physical functioning amongst patients often results in reduced working hours, amended tasks, exhaustion or unemployment [1–3]. A large number of international studies have investigated structural health inequalities, including in vocational and social reintegration, such as in the case of breast cancer care [4–8].…”

BackgroundReturn to work (RTW) is a key parameter of outcome quality that ensures social participation. Therefore, this study analyses the sociodemographic and disease-related determinants of RTW among newly diagnosed breast cancer patients.MethodsIn a prospective, multicentre cohort study, breast cancer patients were surveyed three times: directly after surgery, after 10 weeks, and after 40 weeks. Logistic regression analysis was applied to estimate the association of RTW at 40 weeks following discharge with sociodemographic and disease-related characteristics (n = 577).ResultsThe sociodemographic variables “entrance certificate at a university of applied science” compared to “university entrance certificate” (OR = 3.1, 95%-CI = 1.2–8.1), age group “55–59 years” compared to “18–44 years” (OR = 3.2, 95%-CI = 1.2–8.4) and “having children” (OR = 2.8, 95%-CI = 1.2–6.2) as well as the disease-related variables “rehabilitation” (OR = 0.5, 95%-CI = 0.3–0.9), self-rated health “good” and “excellent” compared to “bad” (OR = 2.7, 95%-CI = 1.4–5.5; OR = 11.6, 95%-CI = 4.2–31.8) and the UICC-classification “stage II” and “stage III/IV” in comparison to “stage 0/I” (OR = 0.5, 95%-CI = 0.3–0.8; OR = 0.2, 95%-CI = 0.1–0.5) significantly affect RTW among breast cancer patients (Nagelkerke’s Pseudo-R2 = 0.275).ConclusionsThe findings show that significant differences in RTW exist between patient groups and suggest that RTW issues must be addressed more effectively before, during and after treatment. For future research on RTW in Germany, longitudinal studies with a follow-up of several years are necessary. Information and support deficits should be tackled by social services or breast care nurses.Trial registrationDatabase Health Services Research, VfD_PIAT_12_001630, registered 01.03.2012Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1186/s12913-018-3768-4) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…Por lo tanto, esta investigación extiende la literatura, concluyendo que las EA no varían según el tipo de cirugía, ni el estadio de la enfermedad. Finalmente, nuestros resultados evidencian uniformidad en las EA en función al tiempo de diagnóstico oncológico, lo cual diside de lo informado por otros autores (Geyer, Koch-giesselmann & Noeres, 2015), que han mostrado que el afrontamiento en respuesta a éste varía notablemente en el tiempo; en tantos otros (Nosarti et al, 2002) sostienen que el uso de EA decrece con el paso del tiempo; o que el uso de algunas EA decrece, mientras el de otras incrementa (Danhauer et al, 2009).…”

“…Otra posible fuente de variabilidad de la EA parece ser el tiempo después del diagnóstico. En un estudio longitudinal con mujeres sobrevivientes a seis años de diagnóstico, se encontró que el afrontamiento en respuesta al cáncer cambió en el tiempo, aunque ello no se relacionó con el riesgo de recaída (Geyer, Koch-Giesselmann & Noeres, 2015). Además, se ha reportado que las sobrevivientes continúan utilizando EA específicas del cáncer, tales como fatalismo y espíritu luchador, cinco o seis años después de éste, aunque en menor medida que las mujeres con diagnóstico reciente (Zucca et al, 2010); lo cual coincide con resultados que evidencian que el uso de EA decrece con el paso del tiempo (Nosarti, Roberts, Crayford, McKenzie & David, 2002).…”
